I am writing this for a friend, whose wife was recently diagnosed with a terminal illness. I pray that he will have the strength and courage to get through this. ~verve ---------------------------------------------------- A distant hope, A silent prayer, A forlorn dream, 'Tis faith a shattered will must bear. Dirge in a merry song must, Yet, let not tragedy fulfil its task. Take now the love you keep, And embrace Life's greatest gifts. [This message has been edited by Verve (edited 06-22-2001).] |

Hey hey ... This had had a strange impact on me recently. I began to view life in a rather different perspective ... suddenly realising there are just so many things and people we take for granted. I now feel as if I haven't been doing enough for my loved ones ... and I seem to have forgotten when was the last time I actually told them I love them ... Sudhir ... Thank you for replying to my posting. I only hope the sentiments were expressed well enough. Severn ... I guess this is the best way I know how to offer them words of comfort and strength. And I am really glad that you thought well of this piece.  EagleOne ... Thanx for dropping a reply ... Your words are truly heartening. ~verve |

this is really touching in light of your introduction. I hope everything turns out for the best. Your poem is truly beautiful and i hope you show it to your friend. Keep looking at life in a different light "so when at times the mob is swayed to carry praise or blame too far, we may choose something like a star" --Frost |
